Hello,
For my bachelor's thesis, I am looking into the performance of XQuery
engines. I see that eXist has some performance tests in the test
suite, but I don't know whether they are still maintained or used as
guides for further development. I would like to contribute something
here, and was thinking of somehow combining the XCheck and TPoX
benchmark frameworks to create a tool that would be useful to both
researchers and developers.
I would like to gather your input to know which features would be
useful. If you could answer the following two questions, I would be
very grateful:
- How is testing currently a part of the eXist development process?
A page from the developer manual [ http://exist.sourceforge.net/developper.html
] seems to be offline (but the Google cache is still available), but
I don't know whether this is still current? Do you only use unit
tests, or are the longer performance tests also used? (data.exist-
db.org also seemed to be unreachable, so I could not download jgoethe-
tei.zip for example)
- Do you have any ideas for performance testing that could not be
realized yet?
If this information is already available somewhere, please excuse me
for not finding it yet.
Thank you for your time,
Jan Fabry
